Yeah, I'm not sure what's supposed to be going on here. I'd check
/etc/ssh/sshd_config on the remote system and make sure that you have the
line
X11Forwarding yes
...in the remote system's sshd_config, because leaving that out will totally
hork up any attempt to use ssh -X or -Y. Also: "ssh -v -Y remotehost", and
the additional output you get from the -v may tell you "stupid error NNN has
happened in X11 forwarding".
I just tried this with xeyes, a GTK+ app, and gnome-terminal, but everything
worked and I didn't get any stupid errors.

I think if it'd been filesystem problems, you would've noticed other weirdness
before X forwarding problems.
